Always Play Safe

I got a call from my doctor today. Bad news.

It all started off over a year ago when I got my first pap. The results showed abnormal cells. My doctors didn't make it a big deal so neither did I. They said it was kind of common to have abnormal cells and to just come back in 6 months so they could monitor any changes.

I went back 6 months later (which is 6 months ago) and got another pap. Results? You guessed it, abnormal cell-growth. Fantastic.

I go back again a month ago. Now they're paying attention and scaring the shit out of me. I get more results and now everything is even more abnormal than before. FanFUCKINGtastic.

I go to a "specialist" about 2 weeks ago. I got results back last week saying everything was fine, my vagina is just abnormal. SYKE! Doc calls today and I have HPV. 

I have HPV... I'm that statistic 6 out of every 10 women. How can that be? I'm not sure how to take it. If I should take it super serious and just pray for the rest of my life or if really it's not that big of a deal and I just have to protect the puss. I've heard of so many stories of my friend's friends who have had cervical cancer or HPV and have gotten through it no problem; I'm praying I'm one of those lucky cases.

I even got the Gardasil shot (DON'T GET IT... THERE ARE SO MANY POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS. I WAS JUST LUCKY I DIDN'T REACT TO IT!) But the shot obviously wasn't enough. The only sure way to not get HPV is to just not have sex! But that's just too fucking impossible so I found a better solution. Safe sex.





Even though my vagina is sick, I'm feeling healthy and fit.
